Get that, its good when you are going up steep hills though. I did the 5 peaks yesterday afternoon and finished off with the descent from Allermuir, was quite a big ride and needed two batteries.

Rode my mates Spectral yesterday, really liked the saddle. Can you buy these saddles direct from Canyon, had a look on their site but couldn't see them listed but sure I read someone on here bought one for their non Canyon bike?

Nice bike, shame you had to sell. Could you tell me what mud guards you fitted?

Why is this, Spech using their patents?

The 15.5 mph limit is too low, 20mph as suggested would work I reckon. My bike is unrestricted but rarely spend a lot of time above 20mph. I commute on cycle paths and being much above 20 when there is dog walkers, or my personal favourite runners with headphones on makes avoiding them tricky...

I am 6'1" (and a bit) and went for a Large in the AC XT. The Large has almost the same reach as an XL Kenovo. That being said an XL prob would have been fine as well but it is already quite a long bike so I stuck with the large.

I bought this bikes big brother, the AC XT with 180mm travel up front. Beautifully made bike, mine came with full Fox Factory suspension. Buy the new Devinci AC XT E-All Mountain 2018 - Freeborn Bikes The ride performance is just incredible, I have ridden the Kenovo, Haibike Sduro and NDuro...

Review of the differences between the Bosch and Steps Lapierre bikes here I have ridden Steps, Yam, Bosch and Brose. I find the Bosch the least natural feeling and it has lag. I don't think 2kg makes much difference when the bike is moving, so although the 2019 levo is 21.5kg in a medium the...

I have a 2015/15 Lapierre Overvolt SX800. Been a great bike for me. Tweaks cycles have the Lapierre AM727 for 4.6k this a great spec and if you wanted to get equivalent in a Levo you would need to spend £3k more. You can buy a spare battery for the Lapierre for around £500, you will need one...

Same for me, I took a similar path to you, MTB/DH then moved to Motos. EMtbs brought me back to the sport. If lived in the Alps with lift served riding I would have a standard DH bike and an eMTB for longer rides in the high alpine linking hut to hut trips. In Scotland, eMTB only for me :)

I have experience carrying Avalanche Airbags when I go skiing. EasyJet allow me to carry a small canister of compressed air (allowed in IATA regulation) that inflates my Avi Bag. However, not all ground crew are aware of this and I have so much hassle and problems with different interpretations...

Correct, thats the bing at Broxburn. This is the one at Philpstoun, near Winchburgh

Any one from around the Edinburgh area will recognise this YouTube clip. It is a place I used to ride my Moto Enduro bike a lot until the Police started to get too many complaints from locals, I don't blame them you dont want a 450 4t MX ripping around a few hundred meters from your house. But...

Been out all morning in my local hills, the Pentland's in Edinburgh. I have some good high speed descents that are around 1000ft of vertical that I ride most weekends. So, first thoughts are: 1. Love the slack geometry, feels like a DH bike. 2. The Fox Factory suspension is a huge step up from...

I love it, it looks like my KTM XCF 250

Arrived today, although Freeborn forgot to put the charger in the box, will arrive tomorrow. Thoughts so far, bike is size Large, it's long, much longer than my Lapierre SX800. Reach is just a few mm shorter than an XL Kenevo. Chainstays are pretty short as well. Not ridden it yet as still...

Did you find out about changing the battery over? I am very keen on this bike but worried that the battery change may be difficult.

Read your review, how easy is the battery to change over. I have ordered the AC XT of but have a slight concern about the ease of changing the battery over. I carry a spare battery and on current bike it takes 30 seconds to swap over,

I have a Lapierre SX800 Overvolt, 2015/16 bike which is pretty good. This has longer reach and shorter chain stays so should be fun. The spec on it, forks, shock, brakes etc is awesome for the money. Bit impulsive, but fuck it I love the look of the bike so went for it. I have also ridden the...
